The Board has remanded the case for further development to clarify the Veteran's employment history and income from February 2010 to May 2011, as this information is necessary to determine if any employment during that period was marginal.
The deciding factor: Clarification of the Veteran’s employment history and income from February 2010 to May 2011 is required to assess whether her employment was gainful or marginal.

What this means for you
A remand is not a loss. The Board sent the case back for more development — often a new exam or missing records — before making a final decision. Many remands later end in a grant, and the decision spells out exactly what the Board wanted to see.
